Chantal Maes

The starting point for this ret­ro­spec­tive exhibition of Belgian pho­tog­ra­ph­er Chantal Maes is a rein­ter­pre­ta­tion of her entire artistic output. Curators Jean-François Chevrier and Elia Pijollet have broken free from Maes’s existing photograph series to create new collections for this exhibition. Photographs, video sequences and sound recordings intertwine, somewhere between weaving and cutting, guided by the idea of a cinema on paper. A body of work centred on rela­tion­ships with others, but designed as an autobiographical introspection.
